ABOUT US
BLKMKT is a Full Service Music House founded in the City of Angels by three native Angelenos. We think creative that moves you requires more than a copy paste approach. From original music composition and music supervision to producing pop records and pairing sound with next-level visuals, we produce for those who want to go beyond the mainstream. We work with clients who believe creativity requires authenticity. We’re here for the ones who aren’t afraid to chase the edge and seek the BLKMKT.
WHO WE ARE
BLKMKT was founded by three gentlemen who met as high schoolers in LA and started a band together. Although that band didn’t last long, the bond they created did. The boys went their separate ways, produced hit records, won awards, made films, toured the world and chased rockstar dreams until finally reuniting in 2015 to form a music house driven by keeping art at the center of the creative process.
In a day and age where music is often mindlessly outsourced or valued for how cheap it can be bought - BLKMKT is committed to keeping artistry core to the experience. Because if it doesn’t move you, it doesn’t matter.

BLKMKT is bound by the following beliefs
WE BELIEVE IN BREAKING THE RULES
Just because it’s always been done that way doesn’t mean it has to be. A new era requires new rules.
WE BELIEVE IN MAKING ART NO MATTER WHAT
Music is art and the moment you take the art out of music is the moment it loses its meaning. In order to create the best work, we keep the focus on the art
WE BELIEVE COLLABORATION AND COMMUNITY LEAD TO GREATER CREATIVITY AND BETTER OUTCOMES
We keep the emphasis always on the collective WE. Teamwork makes the… you know the rest.
WE BELIEVE IN MAKING A POSITIVE IMPACT IN THE WORLD
